Color from the Swamp

I traveled round and I ain't found nobody quite like you,

And is all this living meant to be or a happy accident,

But in my heart you pay no rent,

Well in my heart you pay no rent.

Pay No Rent, Turnpike Troubadours, 2017

John Burns, Gettysburg

"My thanks are specially due to a citizen of Gettysburg named John Burns who, although over seventy years of age, shouldered his musket and offered his services to Colonel Wister One Hundred and Fiftieth Pennsylvania Volunteers. Colonel Wister advised him to fight in the woods as there was more shelter there. But he prefered to join our line of skirmishers in the open fields. When the troops retired he fought with the Iron Brigade. He was wounded in three places." Gettysburg Report of Major General Doubleday.
